Re: franklin going away, gert going south

The same holds true for any season, making them no less impactful than any others. Arlene and Cindy brought plenty of rain to the central Gulf coast; Franklin put a scare into Florida for some time and nearly reached hurricane intensity; and Bret and Gert both impacted Mexico much like Arlene did Florida/Alabama. Oh yeah...and then there's Dennis and Emily. Considering just those two laone, I don't think it's prudent to knock down the rest of the season in its entirety just because they may not have gotten to hurricane strength. This isn't a case of the NHC naming every last thing out there -- each storm this year has been a bonafide tropical cyclone.
